Thompson, president of the Farmers Bank, at the annual meeting of the stockholders January lith, handed in his resignation as effeet February ist. He was actuated to take this step on acount of failing health. Mr. Thompson was one of the prime movers in the organization of this bank five years ago and has continu- ously held the office of president of the institution. It has been his aim and pride to place the bank on as sound financial basis as like institutions in this see- tion of the state, and to gain this end he has devoted his best energies and ability. But being aman of active out door life the ardious duties of the concern and close confinement has told on his heretofore robust consti- tution. The financial standing of the bank, however has reachedjthe goal of his ambition and he goes out with full assurance that his admininistra- tion of the affairs of the bank has met with the approbation’ of the shareholders. He will not lose his identity with the bank,and still holds a position in the advisory board. Mr. Thompson is numbered among ; our wealthy citizens and lives on a magnificent farm just north of the city limits. He is a good citizen and enjoys the full confidence of this com- munity as an honest upwright man in all his dealings, The TiMEs hopes to see him restored to perfeet health. The following resolutions were pass- ed at the meeting of the stockholders Jan. 11th: Resolutions. Wuerras, at ameoting of Directors of the Farmers’ Bank of Bates Couaty, held this day, D N. Thompsen, President of the Bank since its organization, was owing to ill health forced to bring up his resignation, which had been heretofore tendered and action thereon deferred from time to time, and Wuazeas, for many months the directora of the Bank looked with deep solicitude upon the probability of Mr. Thompson being compelled to sever his conmection with an institution for the welfare of which he had worked eo tire- lessly and successfully. Therefore, be it Reso.van, that we hereby tender hima re- newal of the confidence which we have always reposed in him, and also our gratitude and thanke for the able manner in which he has assisted in directing the affairs of the Bank and we sincerely hope the rest and recrera- ton will resultin his restoration to perfect health.
